I'm here for Trent and Corey Draco gets enough attention.
I mean seriously Draco induces weather changes across the globe when it's in a STOL configuration. ☠🤠💀🐎
@@FarmerFpv I totally agree with you on that..... don't forget Hal too😎
Draco has been modified quite a bit since that 2018 video! Even more awesomeness now. I've been watching Patey's channel along with this one way too much lately LOL
Did they decide this year Draco is too strong and has to have it's own category.
Looks like Hal had them all beat! Not bad for an engine he installed on a dirt road in the middle of nowhere.
It sounds good as well
2018 - Year of the Draco
2019 - Year of the Hal
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Backup engine, back road install. And here he kills it. Great show.
Hal the Hero, did he have his prop stalled in case of an endo while landing?
I love how only those who have been following slow and low to osh know that.
So glad that Hal made it to the show!
This is very cool. Wish Draco was competing, but a great showing by Lawn Mower after an engine swap en route to Oshkosh.
HAL 10,000 !
Yeah that was crazy. He was just like things happen...
That Epic Comeback 👌
Totally!
Hal sure won that group!
The ultimate flex would have been to take off and land in the first 2 minutes of the video without getting out of order.
Give'm hell Hal. True bush pilot
That turbocharged Yamaha sounds awesome and performs great on Steve Henry's number 44.
Yep Winner!
Love how you can hear Steve Henry's turbo ripper!!
I played a where's waldo game trying to find myself in the crowd
Looks lovely like Hal nailed it!
This is what true basic amateur and experimental aviation is all about. Seat of the pants flying, on the edge, using raw skill and basic, often home built aircraft to do the near impossible. Like the Barnstormers of the early days of flying, these airplanes and their pilots are today's real life dare devil pioneers. Keeping alive the dream of flight, withing the financial range of nearly everyone. Love it!
First up, our buddy Hal in the Lawn Mower III. A Flying Cowboy.
Pretty good for a plane that just had an engine swap in the middle of nowhere.
@@Karuiko absolutely.
Just was at Oshkosh for Friday's event! Hal was awesome. Very cool to watch!
Looks like Trent wasn't quite on his A-game today.
Was just thinking that. He can fly that Kitfox way better than that.
Trent isn't used to the "fat air" around here.
Trent’s kf is a lot heavier than that highlander, s6 and s7. And actually lower power to weight ratio. It’s a nice plane, but not going to compete with the two rans or just. He actually landed pretty short considering the weight. He overshot the line a little, but it still won’t touch down as slow.
That coupled with his set-up is different than last year. Good point about the power to weight ratio.
What was that turbo 2 stroke? Saw a glimpse of it in Trents video. It's sick!! That is definitely the best sounding plane imo. Awesome! And yea Trent's newer set up is hurting his performance some. He still was rusty, i know he can get it stopped quicker than that. But the D\A is hard to adjust to.
Is that Trent Palmer I see?
WOW absolutely awesome!
Captain Hal for the win !!
Ah-MAZ!NG VIDEO
Keep up the goooO.Ooood work, man!
These planes and pilots are just amazing to me!!!
Good to see my friend CC Pocock in there as well with the BUSH AIR Cessna, you go mate.
flipping awesome show!😀
44 is powered by angry bees lol
That was great!
Well filmed guys!
Dude, in the tent, wearing a red t shirt...slumped out and over...and, at the start/finish line, too...the excitement and all...
Yes ! Lawn mower made it !!
great vid - front row seat!
Planes and a sunset, don't get better than that!
Simply nice!
Good show !
Those are the pilots I would fly with anytime....very skilled.
Nice . . . Thanks for Sharing my favorite category of planes. Bob
The Boys are back in town again
was gonna say i recognized some of these guys, then realized, that's why YT recommended this vid.
Does anyone have a link to the results? Thanks.
That's so great but I wanted more sooo bad....lol
Great video. Thanks. When will part 2 be published?
Jesus. I just heard of STOL today. These are some incredible pilots. Holy shit.
I'd like to see a STOL competition where the aircraft have to carry the weight if a drum of diesel fuel or some such load the a working bush plane would typically have to deliver.
Yes, these are specialty race planes that don't reflect the real world application. Would like to see someone really push a Fieseler Storch as a demo. Have seen some German films that show it's phenomenal STOL abilities, but nobody will risk that now.
Was the one that landed well short of starting point, thus DQ'd a Ran's S6ES? I was really impressed with it's TO!
Turbo planes are just wild
Wow Hal's 3 second takeoff was 2 shorter than Palmer's. Interesting.
GOOD JOB HAL!!!
What's the tail number on c14?
whıch plane is that yellow 44number ?
Lawn mower 2 looks hard to beat ......good job by all
Check out Trent Palmers channel... This guy had an engine blow up on the way to this event... and had it replaced within 24 hours to still make it! Legend!
Looks like at the beginning of the video it’s a bunch of planes acting like ground bases vehicles having a race
In my opinion (which what do I know lol) stol planes will save general aviation
Wes Knight I was not aware that GA needed saving. Does it?
@@royalbirb275 it's just there aren't alot of new pilots so as the existing pilots retire there is gonna be a shortage
Good friend told me on the phone last night he wasn't impressed with the TO performance of Steve Henry's new turbo Yamaha in this vid, so I looked it up today to see for myself. After watching gotta admit I too was expecting more - Like VTO, lol. I think he took off in 57' last year with a NA Yamaha (with my Mohawk Aero Co. gearbox adapter on it) that cost a fraction of this engine - and he won every STOL contest at Oshkosh plus Grand Champ. Steve's TO here looks a lot longer than that, and although his mains are clear at 75' his tail wheel leaves the ground at 100'. Ah, well, then again maybe he just doesn't have the luck o' the Irish from running MAC equipment like he did last year... Wish I was at Oshkosh today instead of working. Nice to see Hal bounce back from the EO and then do so well, that little Rotax gets him clean off in 75' here.
LIKE-SLAP!! from the Home of the LIKE-SLAP
The Siiimpsons...
woah turbo planes? they sound awesome
wheres the rest of it?
Part 2 Part 2 Part 2!!!!!
Hal killed it in the lawn mower
Likes dem Cowboys! Those all look good though
Do they have that competition daily? If so, what time? Thanks.
This is part of the Twilight Flight Fest, which starts at 8pm on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday.
Nice
Henry FTW!
i know the first two guys. its hal and Trent. glad hal made it!
These are awesome machines. If anyone who pilots one of these aircraft needs a super cool place to rent for next year's eaa just let me know. My place has its own hangers and enough room to land for these aircraft. Currently has beds for 15 but can add as many as needed. Indoor pool. In Peshtigo wi.
Did you get footage of any of the other days?
We have more footage from Monday but unfortunately EAA told us our favorite vantage point is now off limits suddenly so we missed the second half of Monday's show. We tried to film Thursday but the STOL competition was called off after the C-5 caught fire, so Monday is all we got this year :(
I guess Draco is in the fighter catagory..
I believe Draco is a static display.
Draco is in the Garmin booth I believe. I'm sure he'll make a showing
@@182QKFTW I saw where Draco will not be flying. :(
Harrier category
Looks like light weight (Lawn Mower III) might have won out over high power (Yee Haw 7) on takeoff! Edit: Although, I think Yee Haw 7 landed shorter.
💚
Considering Hal has about 200 horse power less,I think the tans did very good.
Captain Hal is a beast! Go lawn mower!
I think all of them did a short takeoff.
Thought that might have been a soft field hehehe
i was there somewhere in the crowd
On Trent's landing approach, was that beeping his ground proximity warning? If so, damn that thing's loud! It gets a bit annoying with onboard footage. But hey, safety first! A volume control would be handy. It sounds just like the reversing sensor I installed on my Dad's ute (short for utility for those wondering wtf, (truck for Americans!)) which had poor rear visibility due to the bed canopy. It didn't have any volume control, just loud beeps with differing frequency, to let you know how close an obstacle was. But it suited my Dad fine as his hearing wasn't the best anyway!😄
It's the Stall warning
Where is Draco
👍
3:27 CMON TRENT!!!!
Ground loop ground loop ground loop.
I see Freedom Fox I click.....
Looked like Hal had the shortest, even with the unnecessary weight of a second headset hanging behind him!
They wont have any champagne onboard huh..
Trent Palmer
Isn't the announcer kind of useless?!
Were they "cruising"?! I didn't think that they would fly. But it looked great. Great filming. Great flying. Just Great !!!
Anonymous guy takes off with 100ft TO roll at 3:10: total silence from audience
Trent Palmer just right after him takes off at 150ft TO roll about as twice long: total WHOAAAAAH! from audience
:D
That's Hal in the Lawn Mower.
His engine blew on his way to Oshkosh.
Hal is in no way anonymous!!!
HAL's best performance was middle of the road 😜
44 almost flipped over on the grass runway, way too much brakes!
Nope. That's about as much as you would want to do but it wasn't too much
Go to his channel and watch him fly. He knows what to do with brakes.
Only thing better is if the announcer had stayed home. Can’t stand the endless blabbering.
My boy trent in the thumbnail
Anyone a little disappointed in trent
Trent is the reason I am watching. Not a flyer so live vicariously thru Trent....lol. Seems he was not on his game?
Dont be, he’s actually out gunned power to weight by Steve’s highlander, Jason’s rans s6 and hal’s s7. That kitfox is rather heavy and considering he landed it pretty darn short!
Ehhh, Trent won the STOL drag races so he's got enough bragging rights. (I'm not counting Draco's performance)
@@operator0 Cool! I didn't think Draco was flying this year?
@@BlazinRiver1 STOL drag races didn't happen at EAA, that happened at High Sierra Fly In.
Go to 2:55 to skip silly parade.
Show more flying cowboy shit its what we want.
44 would be bad ass with a better pilot
Steve is a badass pilot. Everyone has an off day watch starting at about 11:35 here and you will see him show off why he won last year. ua-cam.com/video/cFIJgFuAdPc/v-deo.html
first
JUSTACHIPN glad you had a good day
